Investigation of Explosive Characteristics of Purex Solvent Decomposition Products (Red Oil)

Description: Abstract: "Laboratory production of an explosion between UNH and "red oil" under calcination conditions has been accomplished. Attempted production of a vapor phase explosion was unsuccessful below 150-160 C. Since such severe conditions are necessary to obtain an explosive reaction, it appears that present Purex plant design is adequate to avoid explosive conditions."

Reactor Shim Control by Coolant Passage Coating

Description: Work at North American Aviation in connection with the ReactorSafety Program has suggested the use of a poison-bearing "paint" which would coat reactor coolant channels, and provide a supplement to the control systems of the Hanford reactors. A review of Hanford operating problems indicates that this addition to the present control systems would enable an increase in annual production for each reactor of about 6% or the production equivalent of about 21 days at maximum power level.

INVESTIGATION FOR THE PRODUCTION OF THORIUM METAL. Technical Progress Report--Fifth Quarter

Description: Processes for preparing a suitable ThCl/sub 4/ electrolyte free of H/sub 2/O and C/sub 2/ were investigated including chlorination with C -Cl/sub 2/, sulfur chlorides, NaCl, and preparation from anhydrous solvents. The method selected consisted of reacting ThOCO/sub 3/ with HCl, adding NH/sub 4/Cl, and heating in inert atmosphere to drive off NH/sub 4/Cl. (T.R.H.)

Forced-convection heat-transfer characteristics of molten sodium hydroxide

Description: The forced-convection heat-transfer characteristics of sodium hydroxide were experimentally investigated. The heat-transfer data for heating fall slightly above the McAdams correlation line, and the heat-transfer data for cooling are fairly well represented by the McAdams correlation line.

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a 1/15-Scale Model of the Republic MX-1554 Airplane at Mach Numbers of 1.45 and 1.90

Description: "This report presents the results of a wind-tunnel investigation of a 1/15-scale model of the Republic MX-1554 airplane at Mach numbers of 1.45 and 1.90 and at a Reynolds number of 3.0 million based on the mean aerodynamic chord of the wing. Tests were conducted to determine the static longitudinal and lateral stability of the model and the control effectiveness of the all-movable tail, elevators, rudder, aileron, and spoiler. All the results of this investigation are presented in graphic form … more
